Check out the trailer for Deus Ex Remastered below:

The Steam page describes the original release of Deus Ex as follows:

The year is 2052 and the world is a dangerous and chaotic place. Terrorists operate openly – killing thousands; drugs, disease and pollution kill even more. The world’s economies are close to collapse and the gap between the insanely wealthy and the desperately poor grows ever wider. Worst of all, an ages old conspiracy bent on world domination has decided that the time is right to emerge from the shadows and take control.
Key Features:

Release Date Reveal Trailer

Gameplay Presentation

Developer Message

Previously, Bandai Namco shared messages from game director Hiroshi Yoshimura and producer Keita Iizuka, revealing some new details about the game’s story and systems. In CODE VEIN II, players don the mantle of a Revenant Hunter, who slays Revenants and terrifying creatures called Horrors. 

According to Iizuka, the game’s story carries a lot of drama. Players will discover the bond between Revenants and Revenant hunters, with “encounters with revenants from 100 years ago.” This is thanks to Lou—the mysterious girl guiding the Revenant Hunter—who is able to travel into the past and rewrite the fate of the world, according to Yoshimura.

There will also be familiar systems, including partnering with characters and using blood-based skill actions. This is in addition to all new systems that weren’t featured in the original CODE VEIN. Further, players can use unique weapons and equipment called Jails, which are vital in defeating challenging enemies and bosses.

Zero Parades Reveals ‘For Dead Spies’ Trailer

Zero Parades Reveals 'For Dead Spies' Trailer

ZA/UM has released a new trailer for Zero Parades, called “For Dead Spies.” The trailer confirms that the game will release in 2026 for PlayStation 5 and PC via Steam. 

Check out the “For Dead Spies” trailer for Zero Parades below:

The Steam page describes Zero Parades as follows:

A spy like no other 

Brilliant, burnt-out, possibly cursed – you play as operant Hershel Wilk, alias CASCADE. Five years ago you led your team into the abyss and have been haunted by your failures ever since. Now you’ve been recalled for a mysterious assignment that may give you a chance to prove yourself again.

Welcome to the End of History

Find yourself thrown into a three-way struggle for cultural and ideological power, played out across an unforgettable new city. In ZERO PARADES, the world itself is a character with its own secrets, traumas, and miracles for you to discover.

Trust is a volatile plaything

To get anywhere in this world, you’ll need friends. Unfortunately, you don’t have any. Instead, you’ll go up against international bankers, foreign techno-fascists, psychic doppelgängers, a paranoid TV presenter, a man with a box for a heart, and dozens more. Everyone you meet has their own agendas, beliefs, and secrets for you to uncover and turn to your own ends.

Make it up as you go along

In this line of work you’re going to fail *way* more often than you succeed. That much is expected of you. What matters is how you pick yourself back up. As an operant, your dice are in the hand of fate. If they don’t go your way (and they won’t), you’ll have to improvise and hope the consequences are ones you can live with.

Key Features:
    • Become an Anti-Icon: Play as Hershel – brilliant, relentless, magnetic… and cursed. A former top operant whose touch turns everything to shit. She is as dangerous to her enemies as she is to her friends. 

    • Espionage Reinvented: Descend into a world of bootleg mind-erasure, failed space programmes, and state-sponsored pop stars. This is espionage stripped of glamour – no parades, no happy endings – at least probably not for you.

    • Failing Forward: In the life of an operant, failure is inevitable. Here, it’s another way forward – every misstep opens doors that success would run swiftly by.  

    • A Story-Rich Espionage RPG: From the studio which brought you Disco Elysium. Blending the psychological depth of a spy novel with surrealist undertones and richly drawn characters. 

    • A Question of Identity: Who are you when no one is watching? Or, at least, when you *think* no one is? In ZERO PARADES, the answer will define much more than just the assignment. Cope with the terror of reality by giving up parts of yourself and try not to lose your mind in the process.

An open field that challenges you to the fullest

This game features an open field filled with the sense of tension characteristic of the “Nioh” series while also allowing you to explore to your heart’s content. In this dark samurai world, you will encounter formidable yokai, explore menacing villages where darkness lurks, and struggle against the ominous presence of “the Crucible.”

Samurai and Ninja combat styles

You can enjoy an instantaneous and seamless switch between two combat styles during battle, facing your enemies head-on with Samurai Style and using quick movements and special techniques with Ninja Style.

SAROS Releases on March 20, New Gameplay Trailer Released

SAROS Releases on March 20, New Gameplay Trailer Released

PlayStation has released the first gameplay trailer for SAROS, confirming that the game will release for PlayStation 5 on March 20, 2026. The game serves as Housemarque’s first new game since Returnal. 

Check out the first gameplay trailer for SAROS, confirming its March 20 release date, below:

The game is available to wishlist now. The PlayStation Store describes it as follows:

SAROS is the next game from Housemarque, the makers of the critically acclaimed Returnal.

SAROS is the ultimate evolution of developer Housemarque’s trademark ‘gameplay first’ experience.

Building on the studio’s expertise in explosive action and mysterious storytelling, SAROS is a new adventure set on the lost off-world colony of Carcosa during an ominous eclipse.

You play as Arjun Devraj, performed by Rahul Kohli (Midnight Mass, The Fall of the House of Usher), a powerful Soltari Enforcer who will stop at nothing to find who he is looking for. After each death you’ll face a changed world – but you can permanently upgrade and customise your loadout, enabling Arjun to come back stronger every time.

Previously, Creative Director Gregory Louden said the following on PS Blog:

“After Returnal we knew we had created something special and award-winning, but we also knew we wanted Returnal to stand on its own. With this in mind, we decided to create a new IP which evolves our deep third-person action and mysterious storytelling…

A key gameplay distinction between Saros and Returnal is permanent resources and progression making every death valuable. After every death you will face a changed world, but in Saros you will be able to choose and permanently upgrade your loadout from an evolving set of weapons and suit upgrades to “come back stronger” to overcome the challenges you face on Carcosa.”
